Revenue for the first quarter of 2015 was $88.1 million compared to first quarter 2014 revenue of $89.0 million, a decrease of 1.0% as reported and an increase of 6.2% in constant currency. Foreign currency exchange rates negatively impacted first quarter 2015 reported revenue by $6.5 million.

First quarter 2015 revenue of Tornier's extremities product categories totaled $74.8 million compared to $72.0 million during the prior year period, an increase of 3.9% as reported and 9.2% in constant currency.

Dave Mowry, President and Chief Executive Officer of Tornier, commented, "Our first quarter results were consistent with our expectations. The strength of our upper extremities continues to lead our performance, driven by our competitively superior team of specialist sales representatives, innovative technologies and our deep new product pipeline. In our lower extremities business, we continued to execute on long-term sales education and training initiatives, which will position this team for improved productivity, but we experienced anticipated distraction from our previously announced merger with Wright Medical Group, Inc. We continue to be committed to our transaction with Wright and look forward to a combined organization that can deliver accelerated revenue growth and profitability."

Mr. Mowry continued, "In March, we received FDA clearance for the Simpliciti® Shoulder System, making Tornier the first-to-market in the United States with an ultra-short stem, bone sparing, total shoulder arthroplasty system. There was significant interest in Simpliciti at the recent American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons annual meeting, particularly as a potential option for younger, more active patients that have not been good candidates for traditional systems. We look forward to initiating a limited user release this quarter and ramping up to a full market launch by the end of this year."

The Company's first quarter 2015 adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation provided later in this release, was $10.4 million, or 11.8% of reported revenue, compared to $9.5 million, or 10.7% of revenue, in the same quarter of the prior year.

First Quarter 2015 Revenue Highlights

Extremities

Revenue from the upper extremities joints and trauma category was $57.4 million, an increase of 14.0% in constant currency over the same quarter in 2014. This growth was led by the Aequalis Ascend family of shoulder joint replacement products, which continued to gain global surgeon acceptance.

Revenue from Tornier's lower extremities joints and trauma category in the first quarter of 2015 reached $13.9 million, a decrease of 4.7% in constant currency. This reflects continued growth from the Company's total ankle arthroplasty systems, offset by lower sales of core foot fixation products. As anticipated, distractions from the Company's pending merger with Wright impacted results in all segments of the Company's lower extremities business.

Revenue from the sports medicine and biologics product category was $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2015, a decrease of 3.9% in constant currency over the same quarter in 2014, reflecting a decline in the Company's soft tissue anchor and biologics products.

Large Joints

Constant currency revenue from large joints and other products decreased 6.1% in the first quarter of 2015, reflecting anticipated deceleration in Europe and a challenging comparison to the prior year period, which benefitted from the launch of new minimally invasive hip instrumentation.

Geographic Revenue

On a geographic basis as compared to the first quarter of 2014, Tornier's international revenue decreased 10.1% as reported and increased 6.5% in constant currency, representing 40% of reported global revenue. Revenue in the United States increased by 6.0% and represented 60% of reported global revenue.

Fiscal Year 2015 Outlook

The following guidance assumes Tornier continues to be a standalone business for the full year of 2015. This guidance does not include the effects from any product line divestitures nor revenue or cost synergies or dis-synergies from the proposed merger with Wright, but it does anticipate some impact from distraction related to the announcement of the pending merger, particularly in the lower extremities business.

The Company is increasing the bottom end of its full year constant currency guidance for extremities product categories revenue, with constant currency revenue now expected to be in the range of $304 to $312 million, representing growth in constant currency of 6.0% to 8.8% over last year. This growth is expected to be driven primarily by strength in upper extremities.

For the full year 2015, the Company is updating its reported and constant currency revenue guidance to reflect deceleration in the large joint business and changes in foreign currency exchange rates, which is now anticipated to have a negative impact of approximately $25 million dollars on full year reported revenue, as compared to the Company's prior estimate of $21 million dollars. As a result, 2015 reported revenue is projected to be in the range of $334.0 to $344.0 million, representing a change of (3.2)% to (0.3)% over last year, and 2015 constant currency revenue is projected to be in the range of $359.0 to $369.0 million, representing a change in constant currency of 4.1% to 7.0% over last year.

The Company is updating its 2015 earnings per share guidance, with earnings per share expected to be in the range of a loss of $(0.60) to $(0.40) per share.

The Company expects 2015 adjusted EBITDA guidance to be in the range of $35 to $38 million, or 10.5% to 11.0% of reported revenue.

Tornier believes the non-GAAP financial measures presented above provide additional meaningful information for measuring Tornier's financial performance and are measures frequently used by Tornier's management, as well as securities analysts and investors. Tornier uses the non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental measures of its performance and believes such measures facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period and company to company by factoring out potential differences caused by charges not related to Tornier's regular, ongoing business, including non-cash charges, certain large and unpredictable charges, acquisitions, dispositions, litigation settlements and tax positions. Tornier's management uses the non-GAAP financial measures to assess the performance of Tornier's core operations, analyze underlying trends in Tornier's businesses, establish operational goals and forecasts, and evaluate Tornier's performance period over period and in relation to the operating results of its competitors. Tornier's management uses the non-GAAP financial measures to help allocate its resources to both ongoing and prospective business initiatives and to help make budgeting and spending decisions, for example, between product development expenses, research and development expenses, and selling, general and administrative expenses. Tornier's management is evaluated on the basis of several of these non-GAAP financial measures when determining achievement of performance incentive compensation goals.

Tornier believes that non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools since they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with Tornier's operating results as determined in accordance with GAAP and should only be used to evaluate Tornier's operating results in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. Accordingly, revenue on a constant currency basis should not be used as a substitute for revenue, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per share should not be used as a substitute for net income or net income per share; adjusted EBITDA margin should not be used as a substitute for net margin or operating margin; free cash flow should not be used as a substitute for cash flows from operations; and adjusted gross margin and gross margin percentage should not be used as a substitute for gross margin or gross margin as a percentage of revenue, in each case as determined in accordance with GAAP. Neither EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per share, free cash flow, adjusted gross margin and gross margin as a percentage of revenue, should be an indication of whether cash flow will be sufficient to fund Tornier's cash requirements. Additionally, the calculation of non-GAAP financial measures is not based on any comprehensive or standard set of accounting rules or principles. Accordingly, Tornier's definitions of revenue on a constant currency basis, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per share, free cash flow, adjusted gross margin and gross margin as a percentage of revenue, may differ from the definitions of other companies using the same or similar names limiting, to some extent, the usefulness of such measures for comparison purposes.

For further information regarding why Tornier believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors, the specific manner in which management uses these measures, and some of the limitations associated with the use of these measures, please refer to Tornier's current report on Form 8-K filed today with the Securities and Exchange Commission which attaches this release as an exhibit. This current report on Form 8-K is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov or on Tornier's website at www.tornier.com.
